Our Staff

I am honored to be of service to the greater McMinn County and its surrounding communities. I have been working in the hearing industry since 2005. What I enjoy the most about my work is utilizing technology as a tool to bridge communication for the hearing-impaired person and their loved ones. This is more than a job; it’s a way of making a difference in someone’s life. I feel very fortunate to be in the position of taking on a difficult communication situation and turning it into a more manageable one for those who seek help.

I live in a rural area in Athens, TN. My leisure time is spent at home or exploring the beautiful TN views and landscapes. I enjoy family and friends getting together for good southern home cooking meals, activities with my church family, and hanging out with my husband and our 3 dogs.

Hearing empowers us and helps us lead our everyday lives without limitations. It enables us to socialize, work and communicate. It is our connection to life.

Shawna Brazzell is our Patient Services Coordinator at Audibel in Athens, TN. She is originally from Athens, TN and moved to Niota, TN in 2003. Shawna attended McMinn County HS. She began working in the hearing industry in 2022 but has worked in the medical field since 2015.
What Shawna loves most about saving hearing lives is seeing the smile on the patients faces when they can hear sounds that haven’t heard in years. Shawna strives/focuses/works on/etc. to give the patient the best patient care as possible in her everyday work with patients.

Outside of saving hearing lives, Shawna loves hobbies such as watching her kids play ball, and spending time with her husband and 2 goldendoodles.
